Editorial, Mohammed Bennani

Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)

This introductory note explains the dual mission assigned to universities in Morocco by the legal framework governing higher education: teaching and scientific research.

Management Indicators For Agricultural Cooperatives, Gerard Deshayes Mar 2026

Management Indicators For Agricultural Cooperatives, Gerard Deshayes

Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)

This article examines how the performance of agricultural cooperatives can be evaluated through management indicators better suited to their specific economic nature than conventional business ratios. Using the case of a dairy cooperative, the author shows the limits of judging cooperative efficiency solely through profit rates and accounting results, since cooperatives pursue objectives linked not only to capital but also to member remuneration, product pricing, and service to producers. The paper distinguishes between economic efficiency and financial efficiency, and proposes a framework centered on value obtained and distributed value in order to assess how cooperative activity creates and redistributes benefits …

Foundations Of A New Strategy For Financing Traditional Agriculture Through Agricultural Credit, Bouarfa Mar 2026

Foundations Of A New Strategy For Financing Traditional Agriculture Through Agricultural Credit, Bouarfa

Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)

Rural Exodus And Development In Morocco, Dufraisse Mar 2026

Rural Exodus And Development In Morocco, Dufraisse

Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)

This paper studies rural out-migration in Morocco and its implications for economic and territorial development. Using census comparisons and demographic estimates, the author seeks to measure the scale of rural exodus and to distinguish it from natural population growth. The article shows that migration from the countryside to towns and major cities intensified over time, with marked regional differences and a growing concentration in the largest urban centers. It argues that rural exodus is both a symptom of structural imbalance and a major development issue, requiring stronger rural policies rather than being treated as a purely demographic phenomenon.

The Crisis Of Moroccan Agriculture: State Strategy And Alternatives, Mohamed Raki Mar 2026

The Crisis Of Moroccan Agriculture: State Strategy And Alternatives, Mohamed Raki

Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)

The article analyzes the structural crisis of Moroccan agriculture by linking slow production growth to rising food dependence and the increasing weight of agricultural imports. It criticizes the state’s technical choices, especially the heavy emphasis on dam-based irrigation and forms of modernization that favored selected sectors while leaving much of basic food production and small-scale farming behind. The author reviews the limits of hydro-agricultural investment, mechanization, and input-intensive modernization, and argues that these policies deepened external dependence and internal imbalances. In response, the paper calls for alternative development paths better suited to national needs, food security, and the realities of …

The Development Of Export Sectors: An Important Contribution To The Country’S Economic Growth, Aziz Tazi

Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)

This article examines the contribution of agricultural export sectors to Morocco’s economic growth, with particular emphasis on citrus exports.

Agro-Pastoral Production Systems In The Mountains And Foothills Of Morocco, Jean Dresch Mar 2026

Agro-Pastoral Production Systems In The Mountains And Foothills Of Morocco, Jean Dresch

Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)

This article analyzes agro-pastoral production systems in the mountain and piedmont regions of Morocco. It shows how farming households combine rainfed cultivation, irrigated plots, arboriculture, and livestock herding in order to adapt to ecological constraints such as steep slopes, irregular rainfall, cold winters, and limited arable land. The paper emphasizes the importance of collective water management, terraces, seasonal grazing systems, and local resource regulation in sustaining mountain livelihoods. It also argues that the relative balance between crops and herds varies according to altitude, local traditions, and access to pasture, making these regional systems both highly adaptive and socially organized.

What Forest Policy For The Integrated Development Of Rural Space?, Mohammed Ellatifi Mar 2026

What Forest Policy For The Integrated Development Of Rural Space?, Mohammed Ellatifi

Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)

This paper argues that forest policy must be treated as a core component of integrated rural development rather than as a separate technical sector. Using Morocco as its main reference, it reviews the economic, ecological, and social functions of forests: wood and forage production, soil and water protection, climate regulation, biodiversity, recreation, and defense against erosion and desertification. The author shows that agriculture itself depends on upstream forest protection and warns against fragmented planning that ignores these interdependencies. The article calls for coordinated territorial planning and for greater recognition of forestry in national and regional development strategies.

Reflections On Agriculture And Food Security: The Case Of The Arab World, Ahmed Sadik Mar 2026

Reflections On Agriculture And Food Security: The Case Of The Arab World, Ahmed Sadik

Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)

This paper reflects on agriculture and food security in the Arab world by linking geopolitical realities, uneven natural endowments, and the structure of the global agro-food economy. It argues that although ecological conditions are often difficult, they do not fully determine agricultural outcomes; instead, regional cooperation, investment, and the productive use of oil surpluses are essential to reducing food dependence. The article also reviews the historical evolution of the world food system and the vulnerabilities created by import dependence, demographic pressure, and changing consumption patterns. It advocates an Arab strategy that combines integration, agricultural investment, and long-term food security planning.

Agricultural Development And Food Independence, N. Bourenane Mar 2026

Agricultural Development And Food Independence, N. Bourenane

Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)

The article examines the growing food dependence of developing countries, with particular attention to Algeria and the Maghreb. It criticizes uncritical reliance on externally promoted agricultural models based on imported seeds, fertilizers, machinery, and pesticides, arguing that such approaches may raise output while deepening technological dependence, social inequality, ecological damage, and vulnerability in food supply. The author questions whether short-term production gains truly lead to lasting food independence and highlights the long-term technical, economic, and political costs of generalized high-input agriculture. The paper calls for development choices grounded in national priorities and social realities.

The Role Of The Ministry Of The Interior In Agricultural Development, Driss Basri Mar 2026

The Role Of The Ministry Of The Interior In Agricultural Development, Driss Basri

Revue Marocaine de Droit, d'Economie et de Gestion (Moroccan Journal of Law, Economics and Management)

The paper analyzes the place of Morocco’s Ministry of the Interior in agricultural development and rural policy implementation.

Applying Means–End Chain Theory To Online Buying And Understanding Consumers' Motivation To Disclose Private Information, Brikena Berisha, Maja Konečnik Ruzzier

Economic and Business Review

The purpose of this study is to define and understand the motives that influence consumers’ decisions to disclose personal data online. Using means–end chain theory as the main theoretical framework, 10 in-depth interviews conducted through soft laddering revealed how both utilitarian and hedonic motivations jointly shape disclosure behavior. The findings show that these motivations interact, demonstrating that data disclosure is driven not only by functional considerations but also by emotional and experiential factors embedded in consumers’ value systems. The study concludes that motivation plays a central and multifaceted role in online data disclosure decisions.
